Linear Scale (Math)
General – usually we Draw Linear Scales, means the Space between Numbers Must be Equal – but if Things Get Very Complicated in Math, Linear Scales are Not the Best Choice as Details Get Lost – in Musical EQ´s, a Linear Scale Misses Low Content Example Linear Scale – Say you Want to Draw a…

Logarithmic Scale (Math)
General – thus to Make any Big Range more Manageable, we use a Logarithmic Scale – this is True for Any Kind of Scale, but here Especially Explained in Relation to Music – e.g. in Measuring Amplitude, as you Multiply the Change in Air Pressure, you only Add Numbers to the Loudness Scale with a…

General – Mid (Centre) = Contains All the Info that Appears on Both, the Left and Right, i.e. Sum or Frequencies that are the Same on Both Sides, What is Present Equally on Both Channels – Side = Contains the Info that Differs between the Left and Right, i.e. Difference or Frequencies that are Different…
